It may help you see if you are wringing the most cash out of the rental property and if you might want to try on a larger scale (like a 2-4 unit property that could producing stronger positive cash flow). 

I've  been at my job for the past 5 years, after my first 2 got promoted to manager, and since then I've been extremely successful at growing "their" business stronger.

@Joe Fornasiero - if it has newer equipment and appliances then I would give it stronger consideration as your maintenance and capex will be lower.

In my area it's just "I know what I'm doing and don't need an agent, ergo I will bribe the listing agent to make my offer 'stronger' and hope that she is willing to shaft her client with poor advice by finding a way to sell my lowball offer over a higher and better offer that she is not getting bribed on, thus royally SCREWING the seller and greatly benefiting me." 

Old growth wood is stronger and harder than managed growth timber of today.  

The reason is the prices are better, and rent to price stronger.

It also allows you to present stronger offers to a seller since you won't need a financing contingency.

I don't have to pay high-interest rate any points, I know 100% I will close and the seller feels much stronger about my offer when they see my bank statements.  

If you are a serious buyer, and you are thorough in your physical analysis of the property, you can avoid the inspection, saving yourself $$$ and making your offer MUCH stronger in the process.

Rents are stronger than VB, purchase prices are lower, and they have programs for landlords that no other city in our market has.
